A low density parity check (LDPC) decoder integrated on a single semiconductor substrate may comprise one or more arrays of first-type memory cells and one or more arrays of second-type memory cells. The LDPC decoder may be configured to store intrinsic messages in the array of first-type cells and to store extrinsic messages in the array of second-type cells. The first-type cells may be a first one of: static random access memory (SRAM) cells, refreshed dynamic random access memory (DRAM) cells, non-refreshed DRAM cells configured as a FIFO, and non-refreshed DRAM cells not configured as a FIFO. The second-type cells may be a second one of: static random access memory (SRAM) cells, refreshed dynamic random access memory (DRAM) cells, non-refreshed DRAM cells configured as a FIFO, and non-refreshed DRAM cells not configured as a FIFO. |
